greenwich misplotted in the US (near chicago) for 'prince'?

very cool project!

i'm not positive exactly what's going on, but something looks odd when comparing the top few results in the chart and map when you search for and plot 'prince' shows on the globe.

looking at the map, chart and JSON, my best guess is that shows in greenwich are being plotted somewhere near Chicago, even though the lat/long in the payload are accurate

venue: {
  // ...
  city: "Greenwich",
  latitude: 51.4666667,
  longitude: 0
}

Good catch!
As you mentioned, the data retrieved from the Bandsintown API looks correct.
So it might be an issue with the WebGL Globe itself.

A quick search brought me to this: dataarts/webgl-globe#29

I will have a closer look in a few days, but if you find something in the meantime, please let me know.

given that the rest of your data is plotting correctly, perhaps the falsy longitude of 0 is problematic downstream?

[jtpio]

Yes good point. Should be reproducible.

I found the bug.
Cities were grouped by venue name, which corresponds to the city name alone. It turns out that there is a city called London in Canada as well as the one in the UK. That's why the data from London (UK) was plotted next to Chicago.

Fixed by 3a70a1b.
